I dream in literature.

 

Wendy Vardaman

 

 

 

 

In symbol.  In endless connection & open endedness.  In uncertainty & ambiguity.  In undecideable binaries.  In unsatisfactory hermeneutics & (de)constructions of meaning by communities of (un)like readers.  In paradigmatic shifts & disrupts.  In unreliable narrators who sometimes tell the truth.  Descriptions that have no connection to objects they purport to.  In characters simultaneously.  In sincere irony.  Ironic sincerity.  Sincerely yours.  In yours sincerely.  In the always already & the already always.
